\title{Find country specific ratings}
\usage{
find_coders(m, country_text_id, missing, lateral)
}
\arguments{
\item{m}{wide formatted numeric matrix}

\item{country_text_id}{three letter ID of target country}

\item{missing}{Value denoting missing observations to distinguish
coders who have coded for the given target country.}

\item{lateral}{Whether to include or exclude lateral coders.}
}
\value{
Subsetted numeric matrix
}
\description{
\code{find_coders} returns a subsetted matrix with the ratings of
only those coders who have coded the given country.
}
\details{
\code{find_coders} expects a wide formatted matrix typical
    of the V-Dem Measurement Model preparation process --- each
    coder is a separate column and the rownames contain the
    country-dates (concatenated \code{country_text_id} and
    \code{historical_date}).

    You have no idea how much time this stupid little function
    saves...
